Why a cheap big one? Why not a bit smaller one, and better quality?

Like a Goodwinch 8500 ?

I don't get it. People here tend to spend loads of money on suspension, body-lift, CB radios, external rollcages that protects the car more than the driver... and so on..

But when it comes to winches, it always have to be the cheapest ones available.

Needs to be a cheap one because a goodwinch is about £400 and the one i found is £200 13000lb id love to get a better named faster more reliable winch but just cant afford it and im not all goin mad with cages and stuff like that on mine if it gets damaged then ah well lol. However if you know where i can pick up a good winch for around £200 delivered then im all ears. Cheers

Hi mate I had a 6000lbs superwinch fitted into my standard bumper. This was quite easy to do. I have some good pictures which explains how I did it pretty much.
I know it wasnt the most powerful winch but it pulled me and a few landys out of some sticky situations. Im going to get a new one for my new truck. I will be getting one with a plasma rope as they are lighter on the front end & it will be a 9500lbs.

Thanks
James

Don't know where to find a quality winch for @200 maximum. But why not consider saving up a bit more, and buy a 6000-8500 lbs winch instead?

Or perhaps a used winch?
